PM handed four-year jail sentence

A young property management professional has been imprisoned after being found guilty of two counts of sexual assault.

A young property management professional has been imprisoned after being found guilty of two counts of sexual assault.

Alexander Elmowy, who was employed at Belle Property Randwick, was given a four-year sentence for two acts of rape that occurred in 2013.

The 24-year-old was convicted in October 2014, but the case has only now been made public after his appeal was dismissed by the NSW Supreme Court.

Mr Elmowy was in a serious relationship with the victim between 2010 and 2012, then continued to maintain contact with her after their separation.

He denied both charges, claiming that the first act had been consensual and the second had never occurred.

However, Supreme Court justice Robert Macfarlan dismissed Mr Elmowy’s appeal, and said the prosecution had proved its case beyond reasonable doubt in the Sydney District Court.

“At trial the jury did not accept the applicant’s case that the complaints against him had been made in the aftermath of the breakdown of his former relationship with the complainant, who had used sexual allegations as a weapon against him,” Justice Macfarlan said.
